hi!!!

hey girls! i was in california.. and now i'm back. i'm still catching up on reading all the blogs but i thought i'd give you a quick overview of my weekend. i was recruiting at caltech on thursday so i went down to CA from wednesday night to sunday. my only real work was thursday afternoon so the rest of the time i got to hang out with all my 02 buddies. dan and neena live together at caltech so i spent most of thursday and friday with them and then friday night jenny came and picked me up and we spent the weekend in orange county.

we spent all the weekend shopping and lounging around her house eating her mom's cooking and going out to sushi.. as i talked about in the summer after i went there, the best sushi i have EVER had is at this tiny place near their house in orange county. it's in a strip mall, so you'd never be able to tell but it's really the best sushi!!

anyway random tidbits from my weekend. sumita accidentally found out that i was out there and made big plans to meet up with us and a bunch of other MIT people at this bar on saturday. it didn't end up working out but instead we met up with 2 of jenny's random MIT friends that she met out in cali, rick and dean. rick and sumita apparently have some beef so we had to space out the visits.. but rick is an 03 that lived in next house and is this tall skinny guy. anyone know him? and yeah.. dean.. well he's YOUR dean. it was pretty random.. funny enough, he had NO idea who i was :) until i told him the calling all the girls in my phone story.. and then he remembered me.

anyway, it was random... but fun. sumita was herself.. she's now dating her trainer.... in additional to dating (long distance and open-relationship) apurva that indian guy in med school in boston.

she's into yale and sloan for b school and thinking about going to yale. it was hard hanging out with her.. i forgot how hard.. but her new trainer boyfriend is really hot and super friendly. we really liked him!!

my weekend overall was good. i am missing the boy WAY WAY too much by now.. i think i'm gonna drop him a call this week some time. oh.. and jules's present came!! the jbl onstage thing. i dont' have a new ipod yet.. but i am borrowing jonathans and listening right now. it's awesome!!! yay jules :)

i loved reading all the other stuff... sounds like edgar is good.. and peter is being a drama queen. j- i agree with all the advice you got. sounds like such a girl thing to do! writing a whole big email and everything...

nush- i'm glad your review went well. shwaas is probably not on netflix. it's not hindi :) it's a marathi movie actually (yay!) i liked it.. but i'm surprised it's in that category.. usually marathi films aren't enough to make it in. i think my parents have it.. so i could bring it up one weekend and then we could watch it.

:)

ok more soon.. but i have to run to a quick meeting.
